The Class of 1975 book will be open and editable for one year beginning in September 2024, and will close in October 2025. This should allow time to update photos or information both pre- and post-Reunion Weekend. You will receive a notification before the book closes, and, once it does, you will no longer be able to edit your page. However, you will be able to view the book using the class link in perpetuity.

Helpful Tips
- Add a photo to ensure you appear on the landing page with all of your fellow classmates’ photos. Classmate pages that do not contain photos will only appear within the directory search, not on the main page.
- Add as much information as you like! We encourage you to share photos and as much about yourself as you feel comfortable sharing.
- Your page remains editable after you complete it. You may go back under “My Page” and add photos, edit information, or add links later.
- You can view everyone, including those classmates without a photo by clicking “View Everyone” or “Directory.”
- There is a search tool on the top left. This tool may be useful in finding classmates who share similar hobbies, student organizations, dorms, etc.
- Make sure you include the city you live in on your page. Doing so will ensure you’re included on the interactive map within the memory book. You may also look through this map to find out where classmates are located these days.
